Romania stand strong for 30 minutes, but then the Danish defence decides the match
For ten years, since the 32:25 at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, Romania had not beaten Denmark in competitive matches, but on Saturday the fans in Polivalent Hall in Bucharest had hoped for the end of this series. Their hopes were shattered, as the hosts were beaten again, this time in the second semi-final of the EHF EURO Cup.
Thanks to the 28:20 victory, highlighted by 15 saves by goalkeeper Anna Kristensen, Denmark completed the all-Scandinavian final against Norway on Sunday (16:00 CEST, live on EHFTV) – the re-match of the 2022 and 2024 EHF EURO finals, both won by the Norwegians. Before, at 13:13 CEST, Romania face Hungary for the bronze medal.
